My DB have interfaces with Tally and Zapier, and they just stopped working.When I try connect it in Tally, it recognizes all DBs in my workspace, but can find no tables in the BD.Even tried duplicate the BD and rebuild the connections, but just got the same message: “No tables found”. But all tables are there, and all data’s there…Asked AI about it, and it wrote about API key and Tokens…Help, please?...

Attached is a screen shot of a small part of a schedule of conference that a large number of rooms (80) across 4 hotelsthat has numerous sessions per day over a week. I’ve used AT for many years, but I’m struggling as to the best way to design this base to get the most benefit from AT. I want to move out of the g-sheet to unable sort, group and filtering by different staff at different properties with different roles. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I did contribute a base, but it is for a different style event. I want to be careful to not create additional complexity in the base design. https://www.airtable.com/universe/expc6PovQs6jz2O4C/master-plan-for-a-massive-corporate-eve

I’d like to build a base to track our produce prescription program. We have coupons with barcodes to distribute to the patients. Ideally I’d like the health worker to use a barcode scanner to scan the first coupon and the last coupon for each patient. Then I need to populate a table of all the coupons distributed within that range for each patient. I currently have a table set up for “patients” where health workers would assign the coupons. Then I have a table for “Coupons” where I’d like the records to be each coupon code distributed. Any help in how to do this would be appreciated!

Greetings, has anyone heard any rumors about making it possible to access extension from Interfaces instead of having to go to Data and then Tools  and then select Extensions? It is not a really big deal but it becomes irritating and time consuming when I have to send out invoices and I have to go through all these extra clicks to get to the Pages extension where I send out my invoices via email as pdfs.Thanks, Scott

I want to check Airtable automation script code for any type of vulnerabilities in the code. Is there a way I can do that? Or is there any Airtable API which exposes the script code which can help me to check the code?. I don’t want to do manual task of copying the code and checking each and everyone individually.

I'm glad you can share an individual page in an interface. It's a decent improvement but still not the best solution. Now, if you could public share a full interface or at least the overview page, it would be such a much needed game-changer.Being able to share the Overview page of an interface with a nice cover image would be so helpful when sharing with a client or customer. It looks professional, well organized and nicely structured. Perfect if you want to share only the information without providing full access.Notion (overrated IMO) allows this (sharing of a workspace) where you can organize it and make it look professional. Currently in Airtable, when I end up haveing to share multiple URLs for different pages, clients get very overwhelmed. Being able to publicly share an interface would be incredible.

Hi everyone,I started watching the basic videos today, and since there are unfortunately no subtitles, transcripts, or anything like that, and the summary field remains empty, I'm hoping for some helpful suggestions on how to turn either of them on.It doesn't work in Chrome, Edge, or even in incognito mode.Thanks in advance!Tinks

This has been asked a couple of times with slightly different solutions, so seeing current thinking.I want to have an incrementing number that is specific to a group of records only. In fact I want 3. This is used to create unique names (don’t ask me what this client wants this!), but the number should increment if the record has a field set to x. So when grouped together, there is a sequential incrementation (1, 2, 3, 4,) , but others not in that group do not get that number. They would get a different increment (different field probably).My current thinking is to link the records to another table (using deep match?), identify the highest number of increment already, and then have an automation add to the new record ‘number +1’. Thoughts?

Hi Everyone!I am planning a wedding and using a site like Zola to gather all Emails, Addresses, RSVP information. When someone completes the form it auto populates a Google Sheet. Currently I have my guest list organized in Airtable with just names and all of these other pieces of information blank. I would like to create an automation that searches the Zola created Google Sheet whenever a row is added, finds a matching name and updates the Record in Airtable. If in the case a name is mis-matched or not present in my Airtable guest list, ideally I would like it to just add it to my guest list and I can manually correct the issue. I created the automation and used a test Google Sheets and everything passed but I am not seeing my data reflected. I have attached screenshots:

Hi everyone, I’m currently running multiple automations through Make (formerly Integromat), and I’m receiving recurring 429 rate limit errors when writing to Airtable. Here’s my setup: • Multiple bases (each client has a separate base)• Automations triggered via webhook• In some scenarios, a single workflow performs 4–6 Airtable operations in sequence (search, create, update, etc.)• Sequential processing enabled in Make• Free plan currently From what I understand, Airtable has: • 5 requests per base per second rate limit• 1,000 API calls per month on Free• 100,000 per month on Team My question is specifically about the rate limit behavior: If I upgrade from Free to Team, does that change the per-second rate limit (5 requests per base per second), or does that limit remain the same regardless of plan? In other words: I

Hello, I’m working on creating a project management system for a creative studio and I want to have Airtable suggest the best assignee for a task. I have a resource table that shows availability and skill, how do I then have a resource list ranked by percentage “best match” show up? I know I have seen a webinar or tutorial showing what this looks like, but I can’t locate it anywhere. In addition to this, how can I provide a low, medium, high tier to the skills that are matched back with each resource? Is it possible to have an AI agent within Airtable reference an external knowledge base to referencing when deciding on the best match

I could really use some help!I want my formula to return the correct Ship Deadline taking into consideration the time the order was submitted. If it came in before 4:00 pm on a weekday, it needs to ship the next day. If it came in after 4:00 pm on a weekday, it needs to ship in 2 weekdays.This screenshot shows that order 5014021 came in at 5:15 pm correctly shows it needs to ship 2 weekdays later. But for some reason, order 5014020 that came in at 7:15 pm on the same date is showing it needs to ship in 3 days instead.I can’t for the life of me figure out what I am doing wrong. Formulas are not my strong suit so I use AI to help write them. Any advice here would be very much appreciated. It will be so awesome if I can get this to work with anyone’s help!My formula:IF({Store Name} = "Retail",IF(

HelloI’m currently working on a Production Planning base, which is essentially a way for us to communicate with factories on the projected production they can expect from us for the forthcoming months. Currently there are two sets of data:Projected Units  Quantity attached to a “Launch” or a “Deal”.  Confirmed Units. Quantity of confirmed units which have Purchase Orders attached As an example, we have a deal across “P6 & P7” (period/phase) with a customer and projected around 500k units. The problem is that the factory is not going to produce all 500k units at the same time and this deal stretches over a period of time - which based on the customers sales calendar is Feb-Mar-Apr. That is their sales window, so we need to work backwards around 10 weeks for shipping and then an additional 30 days for production.I’m currently trying to figure out the best way to disperse the 500k

Today I noticed an issue with Lookup values—Airtable formulas are not recognizing them in conditions. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Hello Community,Is there any way to update the two fields from the interface when I click an button using form or some other way. Current Problem:I have an automation which triggers on record update. My table as two date time fields: Start Time and End Time. And as you might know we cant enter date and time together in date-time field in Airtable. So when I set both of them it consumes 4 runs of the automation which is not efficient.Solution I am looking for:We would be mainly creating tasks from interface like this Now I dont want to have the Start Time and End Time as editable fields because then the above problem will be posed again. Is there any way where when I click the Update button it askes for Start Time and End Time and then it gets updated on airtable upon confirmatio

Hi,I have workspaces and bases created where as a user I am configured with “Creator” permissions. I have created a personal access token (PAT) and have applied ALL available read permissions and have set the scope to all resources. When I run for example a “list bases” API call, I get a successful response (code 200), however I get an empty list returned like it doesn’t see any of the bases I have created. From my perspective I have given all necessary permissions across the user and PAT, but I still can’t get any bases to come back via API. Any suggestions on something I might be missing or how to further troubleshoot? Thanks!

Hi everyone 👋I’m building an Airtable base to track and analyze daily puzzles from the NYT Letter Boxed game by The New York Times, and I’d love some advice on optimizing my structure and automations.Here’s what I’m currently managing in my base: Daily puzzle date The 12-letter grid (grouped by sides) Valid solution words Two-word solutions (minimum solve goal) My solve time Community solutions collected from different sources Difficulty level (manual tag for now) What I’m Trying to Improve: Better relational structure Right now, I have one main table for daily puzzles and another for words/solutions. I’m using linked records, but I’m not sure if I should normalize further (e.g., separate table for individual words across multiple days). Automation i

Hi Community, I have created a form, with a number of single select fields. When you got to enter, a blank field appear above the single select options - you can click on this, but it is not showing in the field in the back end. There are two options there, but the user end you can select a third non-existent option?The single selects are required fields, and the form has existed for a while without these glitches. Any tips welcome - though FYI, scripting (which the Airtbale bot told me to do) is a bit beyond my capabilitiesThanks 

Hi AirtabliansI have a date column which I have set to DD/MM/YYYY . . when i try to cut or import data into it sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt, i have realised that even though I have set the field explicitly as DD/MM/YYYY format like most of the known world, it still wants in input in MM/DD/YYYY then it represents that back in the format I want to see it i.This is causing havoc with automations.I am guessing that there is a central “what format is the date in this entire table/workspace in” setting but I cant find it? My date settings field input still wanting me to enter in it appears this is why i cant

Washington County was established in 1777 and the county seat, Jonesborough, was established in 1779; the oldest county and town in Tennessee.  We have over a 1,000 family folders and over 400 local history folders along with books, microfilm, maps, etc. in the library genealogy collection.  We are building a searchable database on these family folders and local history folders. In this data base, we also set up through ‘extensions’ a search engine.We want to share this database with family researchers.  But we would like to share with them a “read only” database that is searchable.  This is our problem.  How can we set up a “read only” database that researchers could use?  We do not want to put this database on the internet.  Is there a way that we can set up a searchable database that is only ‘read only?’ 

I am currently working with Airtable Interfaces and noticed that the Label component provides only basic formatting options such as Bold, Italic, and Underline. In many dashboard scenarios, we require more advanced capabilities such as: Adding dynamic field values inside the label Including conditional formatting Displaying additional contextual information Adding icons or visual indicators Supporting richer text formatting or layout control At present, the Label appears to be static and limited in customization.For reporting dashboards and operational monitoring use cases, enhanced label flexibility would significantly improve clarity and user experience.Is there any current workaround to achieve this?If not, would this enhancement be considered in the future roadmap?  For the Reference I have just a

All records in the timeline have a WBS code, for example 1.17.2, and also a zero-padded version like 001.017.002. In a grid view this allows clean hierarchical sorting without any issues.However, in the timeline view the records are still arranged primarily by start date. As shown in the screenshot, the configured sort on the WBS Sort field is not reflected in the vertical order.Is there any way to force the timeline to display records strictly according to the hierarchical WBS order instead of by start date?
